La vénus électrique in Arnhem

Antoine, a once-talented painter, has spiraled into alcoholism and despair following the tragic death of his wife, Irène. Consumed by self-blame, he becomes desperate to reconnect with her. His path crosses with Suzanne, a penniless sideshow performer posing as a clairvoyant. To clear her debts, Suzanne weaves a complex web of lies, staging improvised hypnosis sessions to channel the deceased. This poignant dark comedy explores the fragile boundary between grief and illusion, and the lengths we go to for closure.
